Numpy and SciPy reject use of Accelerate due to faulty implementations of some routines. https://github.com/scipy/scipy/wiki/Dropping-support-for-Acc... We have never received any feedback from Apple about these bugs.



I noticed that SciPy has dropped support. I believe it wasn't only related to bugs, but also an very dated LAPACK implementation (circa 2009). I can't tell from Apple's developer docs whether this has changed.

My sense is that Apple's focus is less on scientific computing and more so on enabling developers to build computation-heavy multimedia applications.
